Russian term

звенящий блеск

Russian to English Other Materials (Plastics, Ceramics, etc.)
Хрусталь сам по себе материал волшебный: делается из обыкновенного песка, отливается в монструозных печах и беспощадно кромсается грубыми инструментами, а в итоге получается звенящий блеск, изящество и хрупкость.

Maruti Shinde (asker) Aug 26, 2008:
Could it be 'clinking' shine/lustre/sparkle as I think the author has in his mind the glass characteristics while assigning this attribute. (when glass is cut, it makes sound as 'clinking').

tinkling shine

Looking up at the night sky, and you can see what I'm talking about. The ***tinkling shine,*** hundreds, thousands, millions and more of them, each similar to our own star, to our own sun. http://theonlyxns.deviantart.com/art/One-of-Many-93450839

jingling sparkle or ringing sparkle

That is an awkward expression... assigning an attribute of material to its other quality... mine is a rather awkward solution, but "jingle" is the type of vibration...
